Oh heck, don't take Fernandes off. Was he hurt?

Passes in the final third Us: 30 Them: 347 🙂

Downes wanting to play it back, while others were looking forward. Unless Fernandes is hurt, he needs to get right back on his feet and defend.

Surprised they had to put a limit on it, if they're that determined to give them a winner. 🙂

Uh oh... Manning for Welington (who did well) Loch Ness for Sule (put a shift in, but tired)

It was the producer who had to tell him too. 🙂

Downes, on a yellow, doing well closing down the spaces and helping Bree out.

Uh oh... More subs....

De Bruyne saw it coming a mile off making Aribo, trying to keep some possession, look a bit rubbish there. Anyway, Baz would have made an ice cool clearance. 🙂

Yay! Ref gives us a free kick. Wasn't a vital touch, but enough to put them off. Whew!

Someone got a vital touch there!

I should have added his foot to shoulder for Ramsdale's possible injuries. But the foot one is long standing with his kicking. 🙂

Oh sure. Anything I say about our subs, or forwards, should have a big "hypothetically" in front, as what you get, isn't what you bought. 🙂

No one getting in the way of Aribo clearing that. Ramsdale's shoulder still giving problems?

We don't get many chances to get free, but touch and passing are poor when they arise.

I think Rusk is looking for mobility over strength, to make the most of any breaks. Still look a bit weaker with every sub we make though.

So daft to get caught out with so many up field.

Silva should have got booked for a dive. and one for Doku for stopping Dibling.

Cap'n Jack to the rescue! Never had doubters...never...🙂

If Suga comes on, it will be 2 mins later and really will be hand ball.

They have the cheek to moan about not being able to take their non-free kick quickly. Grrrr... We get it away at the other end. Not quite as sharp closing, with Aribo on, and Doku giving them a different option.

I thought Downes got pulled back a minute after.

Shame about that pass to Welington. It wasn't a tough one, and would have made City think about getting everyone up.

Aribo did well to get it clear. De Bruyne being looked at for foul play...but plays for big team... so they can sit back, without looking... 🙂

That's the worry. Could moved Fernandes or Downes there, or heaven help us, moved up Stephens. But, considering those options, you can see why Aribo was an option too.
